Cocoon

(A Series of Souls Episode 1)

When you can hear whispers of lost souls, can life ever be normal?

Cassidy Holmes wants tonight’s birthday celebration to go smoothly for her best friend. A group of people Cassidy doesn’t know are invited, but she can put up with social anxiety for one night, right? Horror movies, popcorn, laughs. Even a planned séance at midnight with a spirit board and everything. All classic Halloween party cliches and all absolutely normal. Mundane even.

But at the start of the night, a ghostly voice only Cassidy can hear crackles threats into her mind. She ignores the cold voice, masking it under medication she’s been taking since nine. She tries to convince herself this “Englishman” is a figment of her imagination, a remnant of the voices she’s heard all her life that she’s never been able to explain.

Then, the pizza delivery guy hears the voice too.

As Cassidy struggles to navigate her rediscovered abilities and keep her loved ones safe, she must choose between the life she’s always known and the dangerous, enchanted world that now calls to her.

Before the ghost manifests and takes what he wants.
